3.6 AROMA 7/10 APPEARANCE 3/5 TASTE 7/10 PALATE 3/5 OVERALL 16/20
Dark brownish/amber color, somewhat translucent...pretty large frothy head that faded Really great fruity/belgian yeasty/candy/bubble gum aroma with a touch of some caramel and light spiciness. I definitely recognize the yeast (from other beers) even in the aroma. The flavors are similarly fruity, loads of dried dark fruit (dates, cherries, raisins), caramel, candy sugar, a touch of bitterness and a very slight alcohol warmth. Nice rich silky sugary mouthfeel which I like, but it was somewhat thin. But extremely easy to drink. And the fact that it was $5.99 for a 6 pack makes it awesome. Not the greatest dubbel ever but damn good for the price and for the fact that it comes IN A SIX PACK... I’ll definitely buy more of these.

Pours a deep brown with nice white head. Has a pronounced banana aroma and flavor but also bittersweet chocolate, rum and raisins. Has a slight astringent note, maybe due to a roasted malt addition?
